[gdb] Block SIGTERM in worker threads
With gdb build with gcc-12 and -fsanitize=thread, and test-case
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp, I run into:
...
WARNING: ThreadSanitizer: data race (pid=9722)^M
Write of size 4 at 0x00000325bc68 by thread T1:^M
#0 handle_sigterm(int) src/gdb/event-top.c:1211 (gdb+0x8ec01f)^M
...
Previous read of size 4 at 0x00000325bc68 by main thread:^M
[failed to restore the stack]^M
^M
Location is global 'sync_quit_force_run' of size 4 at \
0x00000325bc68 (gdb+0x325bc68)^M
...
SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/event-top.c:1211 in \
handle_sigterm(int)^M
...
and 3 more data races involving handle_sigterm and locations:
- active_ext_lang
- quit_flag
- heap block of size 40
(XNEW (async_signal_handler) in create_async_signal_handler)
This was reported in PR29297.
The testcase executes a "kill -TERM $gdb_pid", which generates a
process-directed signal.
A process-directed signal can be delivered to any thread, and what we see
here is the fallout of the signal being delivered to a worker thread rather
than the main thread.
Fix this by blocking SIGTERM in the worker threads.
[ I have not been able to reproduce this after it occurred for the first time,
so unfortunately I cannot confirm that the patch fixes the problem. ]
Tested on x86_64-linux, with and without -fsanitize=thread.
